Sport: Well Earned

Rest from his labors has come to Walter Johnson (TIME,
Sept. 22), aging ace of baseball pitchers. Last week, he and a partner
acquired the Oakland (Calif.) club of the Pacific Coast League. In the
spring Johnson will embark no more on stormy big league seas with the
world's champion Washington Senators, but will pitch Oakland's three
big opening games and then settle back, in the warm California
sunshine, to grow old in profitable leisure.
